I'll make particular note of the documentation in
https://help.sugarlabs.org/en/home_view.html
Here, the default Home view is what this page calls Favorites View, in which a
selection of activities are
displayed as icons in a circle or spiral, with text names only revealed on
mouseover.
The Terminal activity within the Sugar desktop (that is to say, not an Ubuntu
terminal application) usually
is not included in the Favorites View. One can find it, however, in the List
View. In List View, the names
of the activites are shown in a dedicated column. This is less compact, and
less useful to learners who do
not yet read, but I find it helpful :-)

Favorites View, then, will show the Terminal activity there and allow it to be
launched by clicking on its
icon.
